FOX 4G DA8
The connected receiver(s) convert the proprietary signal(s)
back to video (RGB, DVI, or SDI/HD-SDI, depending on the
source transmitter and the receiver), audio, and serial RS-232
communication, and output the signals locally. For video
resolutions up to 1600 x 1200, the receivers' video outputs are a
perfect, pixel-for-pixel or digital recreation of the video signal
input to the FOX DA via a transmitter.
Features
Ultra high performance
— Outputs up to eight perfect,
pixel-by-pixel RGBHV or digital video transmissions to
compatible receiver(s). The FOX DA can handle analog
video resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 60 Hz. Higher
resolutions can be transmitted, but with some loss of
video quality.
Optical input and outputs —
The FOX DA inputs and outputs
the optical signal on LC video connectors.
Active and individually isolated outputs —
The FOX 4G DA8
uses active signal splitting to maintain equal transmitter
power to all outputs, maximizing distance capabilities by
ensuring full availability of optical loss budget for each
output.
System video output
— When the optical input is from a
FOX 500 or FOXBOX 4G Tx (rather than a FOX HD-SDI),
the video portion of the optical video output can be
decoded to either RGB video or DVI video, depending on
the receiver connected.
Rack mounting
— The unit is rack mountable in any
conventional 19" wide rack, using Extron's full size rack
shelf.
Power
— The 100 VAC to 240 VAC, internal power supply
provides worldwide power compatibility.
